These are the glasses that come packaged with some TVs (PN51E490 etc.). They work great. Pros - Light weight. Cons - No hard storage case Good to know - Must assemble arms and insert battery. They are lightweight and do not feel any heavier than most eyeglasses or sunglasses. WHen wearing them, I didn't have a problem with glare or anything else. Assembly (putting on the glasses arms) and battery insertion were easy. They have a single button that serves as on/pairing and off, but seem to go off when the tv is switched off of 3d mode (which is nice, but I can't confirm for sure). I didn't have a brightness problem when watching 3d, but I might try to put 'blinders' shielding around the frame to close off outside light. Note that doing this will make them custom (which is why they aren't like that to begin with). However, since it 'ain't broke,' I may not try to 'fix it.' They did not come with a storage case, so I have them in sandwich bags to prevent dust and scratcehs. WHile a hard shell case would have been nice, I know this would have increased the price so would rather add it laterby my own desighn.

I thoroughly researched these glasses on the Samsung website to make sure they were compatible with my Samsung PN51E550D1FXZA 3D HDTV. Upon receiving them, I tested both pairs that I ordered on a 3D BluRay for about 5 minutes, and they worked fine. Two weeks later when we used them for the first time for a full-length 3D movie, they kept losing their connection every 5 - 15 minutes. The two pair of glasses that came with the TV (SSG-4100GB) that my in-laws used, stayed connected for the full length of the movie (over 2 hours) without losing their connection. I then tested the two models side by side, and the 5100s kept losing their connection, while the 4100s (that came with the TV) did not. Either these glasses are incompatible with my model of TV or this lot of glasses is defective. I returned them to the online retailer for a refund. I have been very happy with Samsung products, but this experience was very disappointing. I will be very wary of buying any Samsung products in the future.

I reviewed a rechargeable one way back these I would say are 100x's better. Not only do these last me through a lot of 3d viewing they have stayed together perfectly. I have also found that they work better than their predecessors. They have worked quite nicely for me. The reason I gave them four stars they still hurt if you wear them too long. I am not talking about eye strain. I am talking about pain behind the ear. Hey what can you expect though right.

I would have given this a perfect review but it doesn't contain a rechargeable battery. It takes a CR2043. Although you don't have to change it often, CR2032 are pretty expensive, However, the glasses are light as a feather, comfortable over eyeglasses, and active 3D is full HD
